oh no he didn't--"what should I see when I'm in the North?"

ooh, I forgot:
dear everyone:
Please, tell me what I should not miss when I'm carousing around the south.
By 'the south' I mean somewhere in the region of Virginia, the Carolinas, Tennessee...I'm not trying to telescope all these places into one hegemonic South, but, uh, I am a Yankee through and through and I just don't even know where to begin. Geographical beauty, artefactual kitsch, and good food are all draw enough for me.
Thank you,
me.
